“The students and teaching staff at Emmbrook should all be incredibly proud of hemselves, and I have filed an early day motion in Parliament to formally recognise this ncredible achievement.”

Pete Whitehouse, senior lead for sixth form at Emmbrook School, said: I am full of immense pride and admiration for our sixth form after they achieved an LPS1 in their 2024 exam results.

“Being in the top 1% nationally is so well deserved for this year’s group, who were some f the nicest and kindest individuals.

“Their dedication and hard work paid off, showcasing the incredible potential within our sixth form. This milestone is a testament to our collective commitment to excellence and growth.”

David Constable, head of sixth form at Emmbrook School, said: “Working with the year 13 class of 2024 was a true honour.

“They were a hard-working, dedicated and caring group of students who put their heart and soul into their passion for education.

“The work ethic amongst the year group was outstanding, with students often going above and beyond to improve their understanding of the courses being studied. In addition, they were a selfless group, always wanting to help and support those around them.

“Ultimately, their attitude towards their studies was rewarded with an outstanding set of results. Working with the group during the two-year A-level journey was a privilege and an experience that will remain with me for the rest of my teaching career.”
